Hi Dave
As mentioned via email, you're more than welcome to join us and use one of the safety / warm up lines. I realise that this is set at 25m which is shallower than you want but you would still get some practice in and be able to join in socially, help others out around the pontoon and share in the fun.
As a general request to everyone who comes along ... Sam and I have always asked that we receive depths no later than the Wednesday before we dive. The session threads are up and running at least two weeks before the due date. That allows for plenty of time for anyone interested in joining us to put there request in and get their name on the list. We do our absolute best to make sure we accommodate everyone.
My priority is everyone's safety. That includes the freedivers and The Angels. We need to work out gas calcs, blend gases, sort our kit, plan our dives, work our deco schedule out, work our depths out etc etc. The absolute latest decent time I can send that info out to the guys is mid-week. So when Sam and I ask that you post here in time, that's why. It isn't an unreasonable deadline.
In the meantime, we're working on improving the pontoon, adding more training facilities and are introducing a counter weight system to allow for extra training weekends when The Angels aren't available. There is no better freediver training facility in the UK offering the depths and detail to safety that we have at Saltfree. I'm not prepared to compromise that safety in any way and neither is Sam. Late requests aren't necessarily impossible to fit if we have two streams of support divers. This session however, I need all the support divers booked to be in the water in one stream. We have some deep depths to cover, long deco and it's cold!
Look forward to seeing you if you decide to still join us.
